    When the day's all getting a bit much and there's an explosion of frustrated temper about to happen, isn't great when you can just stick on the headphones and listen to something to calm you a bit...

    Heck. Headphones are calming even without music. Have you ever noticed how people are hesitant to interrupt someone with headphones, because it usually requires a more "in your face" contact, like touching, to get noticed? Give it a try. Put on the headphones but don't play any music. You'll be left in peace! :) Marc

        But if you have the headphones on, you might as well play some music... otherwise it'll be like faking a car trip. :~

                    I did this to ignore a roomate when I lived in the dorms, worked quite nice. I think he eventually caught on to what I was doing since I never plugged my headphones into anything (and it was quite obvious that I didn't) and he got mad adn just stopped talking to me.
